Monitor) Health is primarily a condition. - It'is as free for all to obtain as is the knowledge of ma- thematics, Everyone may use ma- thematics at' all times. Health is equally free. The first step toward obtaining true health is to understand that health is a right mental condition, and that disease is a state of false belief. Thid also may" be illustrated by mathematics. 'Mathematics thas always egisted; but its laws and rules had ta be discerned, under- stood, and applied: in: ordr to | esta- blish its - utility, One' knows ' that he can obtain correct answers to: ma- thematical problems if he. perseveres in learning the rules and in obeying them. Similarly, one gains the true sense of health proportionately as one upderstands and fulfills the di- vine laws of Truth and. Life. The word "law" occurs frequent- ly in the Bible, showing that Gods creation is governed by law, the:law of Life 2% Truth and Love. The| real man is always governed by God's law; therefore he expresses perfect hagmony. In mathematics one works with ideas. WHen' one endeavors to gain the true concept of health, he uses spiritual ideas, divine qualities, such as intelligence, attention, hon- esty, wisdom, love, patience, . justice, and courage. Perserverance is also an important quality. As persever- ance is essential in the solutiog 6f a _mathématical problem, so it is needed to establish true Christ Jesus admonished His followers to said, "If ye continue in my word, then are ye my disciples indeed; and ye shall know the truth, and the truth. shall make you free" What breaks the connection be- tween God and man?

Mrs. Warren intends to visit rela- tives here later, - Messrs. Fred, Robt. and Milton Graham attended the funeral of their' cousin, the late Albert R. Walsh and Mrs. Walsh in Orono. Several other friends from this village in- cluding former neighbors of the Walsh family at Cowansville and Clarke church were also in attend- ance. As a Dicbatiener and young tinister Mr. Walsh had preached in the Methodist Church here on occa- sions in years past and now to many come memories of those days mingled with feelings of sadness for the pass- ing of himself and his invalid wife. The death of the husband and wife within a few hours of each other also stirs, up memories of the late : clergyman's brother, the late David (where they will s A Man and Whatever a man lets die within | his own soul as the years come and| go he must: be: Jory jen -jealous not Ey et his dreams die, for when he all' that makes life divine and 'fl J oe, and they disappoint times, but man is as' Go ou cause he has them, and he will save his* soul" from 'the clutch and tyran- ny of things and will give that soul winigs for 'attainment only as he cherishes them. Nothing that we have should we cherish so tenderly as our dreams: nothing that we have is ours to keep with 'such infinite care: no- thing that we have should we allow to 'so control and oir and 'haunt ind master 'us as the days come and an himself must be the child of God's dreaming. - How short a way our . poor conjecture goes, and yet we feel that it must have been some- thing like that, that to the Great Eternal in those immeasurable ages that preceded creation a great dream came and that dream became man. We can think of as rest- less after that dream came to Him until He had made man in His owh image, just as we find ourselves rest- less when His dream comes upon us, until 'something is "achieved. to which that dream points. And it is because His dream' within our souls will not sorely it'with hope and possibility has gone | Dreams. are. airy things, : His Dreams with the or that can see int handle, that. we are me san ee 'of the divine nature, called of God in very reality, Sometimes . we . tell urselves that we are 'going to quit our : dreaming. That is-all a aehmon and. deceit.

But God's rio in our heart will never leave us un- til we drive it away with utterly un- holy. hands, a dream of - ing higher and holier and 'happier than we have ever known, a' dream of something that 'matches the divine within us, that eyes have never look- ed upon and that hands can never touch. And happy indeed are we if | we are wise enough and' teachable enough to let that dream live with us'as the deys and the weeks and the years go by, if we cherish it. and make it possible that it should ever stir us and thrill uk and lead us through restlessnes' and longing. and deep discontent to the things which are above and beyond, the things which' God has in store for all his let us rest, will not let us be satis- children, us to get away from the things that we have done and have been in the days that are behind us. 'In so many ways to-day is a product of yester- day and the days that have been be- fore that, and 'the accumulation of the deeds. of days an® weeks and years that have gone has established trends and tendencies and habits of thought that, either for good. or .for ill, hamper to-day and make it that we are not altogether untrammelled as we face the present and its re- sponsibilities and opportunities. That is 'one 'of the rather solemn things about living, it does tié" certain things about the necks of future days and future years, and sometimes they are good things, and, unless we watch carefully, sometimes they are very bad things. But often we add to the inevit- ableness of that sort of thing by more or less deliberately burdening to-day with things that it ought never to carry. We bring over into to-day from our own history.and ex- perience much that hampers and hinders that we ought to get away from and cast aside and quite ignore, and if we could succeed in' doing that, life would be very much: strong- er and freer and more hopeful for us. For instance, we have failed in the past in our attempts at doing certain things, perhaps failed inglor- jously an¥l. tragically, and we have | brought out ir g those experiences a fear and sense of inevitableness of failure in any future attempts that Hampered By Our Past Inevitably ityis very difficult for oaken anythitiy like a real success quite. impossible. And so in i mul- Stade of ways we tie the mistakes and weaknesses and failures and sins of pt days as millstones about the neck of to-day. And often we pioysly, tell our- selves that this was quite inevitable; indeed, that it was heaven's way of punishing us for the weakness and failure and folly of the past. But in. a multitude of ways heaven is not as. hard on us as we are on' our- selves, and what we would be in- clined to think of as some divine judgment is only eur own foolish yielding to weakness and to fear. I may get fear and a sense of futility for future efforts out of my failures in the past or I may get wisdom that will guide me away from past pit- falls and help me to do better, and the ldtter' is vastly more in the di- vine intent than the former. If I have been foolish or ungracious or mean-spirited or weak in a given situation in the past does not quite say" that 'IT must carry over from those experiences some habit of folly or boorishriess or meanness or fear. It is quite as much in the divine. in- tent that I should get wisdom and strength obit' of "my past experience as' that '1 should get only fear and hampering = habits. and tendencies. And it must be that heaven inténds us to meet new days and new ex- | periences with a freer and braver and less trammelled spirit than many of us are able to muster.

UNEVEN TENDENCIES IN FRENCH PROTESTANTISM Two recent articles on a autant. ism. in France--one in. Goodwill;;and Retires --helpito envisage the difficult posi- tion in that Soumy. 'There is only one Protestant or every forty Frenchmen. Protestants: are widely scattered, so much so that as many are lost each year as are won through" evangelization. The Roman Catholic church is developing a re- markable activity and zeal in every direction 'and endeavoring to recover its-hold of the mass of the people. Although free thought and atheism are no longer a menace, the working classes and peasantry are, still ner- ally indifferent or hostile to religion. It is the educated and oy ox. that are being won back tothe in- fluence of the church. But Protes- tantism has for the moment lost its faculty for emthusiasm and high am- bitions, and has.no. creative. gift, ac- cording to these articles, erhaps the problem of finance accounts for the listlessness and lack of enterprise whichis reported. An effort is be- ing made td raise the minimum salary of pastors and evangelists from £70 ta £104;a year." In spite of these low emoluments more students are enter- ing the colleges than has been. the case for many years, The new Christ Church' Cathedral, Victoria, B.C, is to be co secrated on September 28. The ishop of Winchester is expected to attend 'as representative. of the Mother, Church of England, and the Bishop of Spo- kane as 'representative of the Episco- pal Church 'in' the Vite; States, all' earth's satis-. that and 'An hirer 'missionary to In- dia' bi half-humorously. an account of first work 'at 'distributing at when the hedrt 'was young and enthusiasm was the pro- duct of an. exuberant .spirit rather than the outcome of a. purposeful interest we once: planned to.go to a mela and distribute tracts. Before we started, the leader got us all to- ether, and opening his Bible at lesiastes 11, read the first six verses in a rich, mellow voice. The words 'Cast thy bread upon the wa- ters! for thou shalt find "it . after. many days' and 'In the morning sow thy seed, and in the evening -with- hold not. thine hind; for thou know- est not whethér "shall prosper; either this or that or whether they both shall be alike good' went home more for their poetry than truth. "Yet their significance has grown each time I have gone out distribut- ing tracts. The leader told us after a word of prayer that the tracts should not be given away in a hurry or lightly but efforts' should be made to speak to each individual to whom we. should give a tract, . somewhat like this, 'Friend, read this paper, and you will find the contents to be cor- rect... They are concerned with things of "eternal importance.' It is true you often do not have time to speak such words, yet if you can establish a personal contact with the person receiving a tract either by voice or look or smile, the reading is likely, to. be more effective. "The leader also ke us to con- tinue to remember the work, when it was over, in our individual devotions: His advice has been a A antidote ment, Though the pow: 3 sometimes questions 'Is it worth, while doing this?' promptly comes the reply 'In- deed, it is!"
